The Thought For Today

Encouraging You Through God's Word


As I was reading a new book (“Life Essentials” by Tony Evans), the topic of glory was discussed. Anytime we are not growing as Christians, the book says it’s because our emphasis is on ourselves instead of focusing on God and His glory! It said that God created mankind for His glory (Isaiah 43:7). Sin is failure to bring God glory. Romans 3:23 tells us all have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. So, we are not sinners just because we do bad things but because in our sin, we fail to live up to the purpose for which God created us, which is to glorify Him! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

As soon as I read that, I threw my pin and book down and asked, “God, did I bring you glory yesterday?”😢🤷🏽‍♀️😳🤔

PEOPLE!!!!! CHRISTIANS!!!

Daily, you and I must examine ourselves. Who are you living for? What is your purpose? Are you growing spiritually? Is your life all about you?

If you and I are not living each day to bring God glory, then something is wrong! On today, keep this question in your mind…God, am I glorifying you? If you pay close attention and listen, the Holy Spirit will speak!

May you bring God glory that is due to Him! 🙌🏾🙏🏾💞
